Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This publication has been produced to accompany an exhibition staged by Ingleby Gallery, Edinburgh, for the 2021 Edinburgh Art Festival. The exhibition is the first devoted to Frank Walter's 'spools' - the small circular paintings which, in their consistency of scale and form, provide a lens through which to witness the workings of Walter's inner eye. Walter's work was unknown during his lifetime, but in the decade since his death he has emerged as one of the most distinctive and intriguing Caribbean voices of the last fifty years. Painted with a rare directness and immediacy on whatever material came most readily to hand, his works describe a visionary artist rooted in the landscape of Antigua, the island of his birth.

Hardback. Condition: New. Explore Frank Walter's relationship to Antigua through a range of works and writings that express his intimate connection to Caribbean nature, landscape, and place. "Nothing seems to be reworked-it is as if each piece drew or painted itself without being adjusted, revised, or fussed over." - Hyperallergic Influenced by his studies of agriculture and the sugar industry in the former British colony of Antigua as well as his extensive travels in England, Scotland, and West Germany, Walter created work inspired by his thoughts, knowledge, journeys, and surroundings-work that encompassed painting, drawing, writing, sculpture, photography, and sound. This focused selection focuses on paintings-tender, quiet, and lush-that transcend the traditional tourist's view of island life in favor of perspectives that explore how and why we look at where we are.Published on the occasion of the 2022 exhibition at David Zwirner, this catalogue includes an introduction by the show's curator Hilton Als. Barbara Paca, the leading expert on Walter, writes a text detailing her personal experience meeting Walter and being in his presence. An essay by Charlie Porter takes readers on a walk as he muses about Walter's life and the nature depicted in his paintings. Joshua Jelly-Schapiro travels to Antigua to explore the history of the island and Walter's lasting impact there.
